As early as hell-past seven this morning the curious began to take their stations on each side of Piccadilly , and at half ' past eight it was impossible to get from or to the line by say , of the branch streets ; while " confused, unnumbered multi tudes" perambulated the line for the purpose of picking outouiful ndmlo t t l heb a est spot fromved Queen. were co those uldobtaina sight sil ld of l their _y cured seats at the different windows later in their arrival. The galleries erected in front of the mansions of the late Lord Eldon and of Lady Antrobus were, by eight o'clock, occupied with the " Fsirest of Creation, the last and best of all God's works ;" and certainly the space between Hamilton-place and Apsley • House presented a most beautiful and grand appearance. At 9 o'clock, the Police commenced clearing the line, and by half-past nine the road was in perfec torder for the pro cession. Indeed, great credit is due to the police who were stationed at this part of the line (the T division), for the very quiet but effective way in eirich they did their duty. A few minutes before ten the first squadron of Life Guards reached Hyde Park-corner, and shortly afterwards the Foreign Ambassadors arrived, the splendour of whose carriages appeared 'to excite the admiration of all. Marshal Soult was warmly greeted by the populace. Some little confusion was here 'treated in consequence of the Ambassador having broken the line, but order was soon restored, and " The pomp, the pageantry, and the proud array" proceeciod. At a quarter past ten a salute was heard an 'Jouncing that her Majesty had left the palace, and this was the signal for a hearty shout from the " numbers without number." The Duchess of Kent and the Duke of Sussex were warmly greeted. At half-past ten her Majesty's carriage passed Apsley 'House, which— " With slow but stately pace kept on its course, While all tongues cried—' God save thee'— You would have thought the very windows spate So many greedy looks of young and old Through casements darteo their desiring eyea— And that alt the walls With painted imagery had said at once— . ' Jesu preserve thee." ' Thus the gorgeous carriage of England's Queen moved on, midst the loud acclamations of her loyal and loving subjects, which her Majesty roost graciously acknowledged, while " In every gesture was dignity and love." ST. JAMES'S-STREET. Viewed from St. James's Palace, the scene to the upper end of St. James's-street was of the most brilliant and ani mated description. Nearly the whole of the windows and balconies were occupied before seven o'clock, and at eight scarcely a seat remained vacant. Crockford's had a peculiarly 9 pleedid appearance, from the large number of elegantly attired ladies who adorned the spacious galleries which extended the whole length of the edifice. The humbler class of spectators on the fcotpaths had by this time assembled in considerable numbers. and continued to augment every moment; and in numerable were the " hair-breadth escapes" of the pedes trians in attempting to cross the street, particularly at its junc tion with Piccadilly, from the roll of carriages and passage of troops. The daneer was somewhat lessened, when at 8 o'clock the barriers were closed to the public, remaining open merely for those who had tickets for the Abbey. About nine o'clock the Lamers wee finally closed, and the assembly then began to eett:e into something like order, for the purpose Of conve nietely siewing the processi©n on its arrival. By half-pest nine an avenue had been completely formed, and the crowd Waited with the utmost impatience for the si g nal which was to announce her Majesty's departure from the Palace. This was at length heard, and about twenty minutes past ten the first part of the cavalcade turned into St. James's 'erect. A few minutes afterwards the band arrived and struck Up " God save the Queen," amidst the warmest demonstra tions of respect. Marshal Soult on being recognized wss loudly cheered, and the applause was prolonged as his car- ' kri age proceeded down the street. The Duchess of Kent met with an enthusiastic reception, and the Duke of Sussex was greeted with immense cheering. The waving of handker chiefs feem the windows now announced the approach of her Alajesty, ,and every eye was strained to catch a glimpse of the carriage, which at length entered St. James's-street, amidst the simultaneous and e nthusiastic cheers of the assembled multitude, which were prolonged as her Majesty gra ciously acknowledg e d the symptoms Of loyalty which were manifested. On passing St. James's Palace, about a quarter before eleven o'clock, a short delay took place in con- Sequence, we understood, of one of the traces of her Majesty's carriage giving way. This, however, was not regre tte I b y the spectators, who were gratified with a more perfect bets of her Majesty than they otherwise would have been, and who seemed to vie w:th each other in their clereen trations of attachment to her person. The accident having been remedied, the procession again advanced. PALL MALL. This formed one of the most interesting districts in the whole line of the gorgeous procession. Here the ingenuity Of the architect, the painter, the carpenter, the haberdasher, "c-, had been taxed to the utmost in the expression of the beelines of loyalty which unquestionably pervaded the universal Population. At an early period of the dav, the whole street was thronged by pedestrians and equestrians of every descrip tion, whose gladsome features and joyous expressions denoted that,. they anticipated the glorious proceedings of the day. W are informed that even as early as four o'clock, the pas sengers were far more numerous than is usually the case " the same hour in the afternoon ; and some thousands of l i 'eeple, anxious to obtain a peep at " the admired of all behold ers " remained in the stations of whielt they ha I pus !egged themselves, for three or four hours. We roenti in this ei reumstance as one of the most convincing proofs of the general loyalty evinced throughout the day, The morning appeared rather lowering, and a quantity of ~r tinfoil between eight and nine o'clock ; but while it damped 5 Elgin.

It is impossible for us to particularize the reception of the various august personages who consti tuted the pageantry; and we must confine ourselves to the following brief statement of facts :—Marshal Soult met with the most rapturous gratulations of the whole people, forming the most conclusive answer to the unworthy attempts which have been made of late to excite a spirit of insult towards that illustrious Nobleman. The applauding which welcomed the arrtvai of the carriages of the Duchess of Kent and her attendants, and the Duke of Sussex and attendants, were of the most rapturous description. But the Queen I Her re ception baffles every attempt at description. No sooner did the people obtain a sight of the features of her Majesty, than t‘ such a noise atose As shrouds make at sea in the stiff tempest, As loud, and to as many tunes ; hats, cloaks, (Jackets, ;twas said) flew up, and had their Lees Been loose this day they had been lost." Her Majesty felt sensibly the enthusiasm with which she was hailed, and returned the salutations by repeated bows to the as semblage on both sides as the procession passed along. Everything passed off in the most happy manner; and in justice we state that the military and constabulary regulations were of the first order. CHARING-CROSS. As early as six o'clock the opposite space opposite Charing cross and Trafalgar.aquare was crowded to excess by persons of every rank and description, from the rich citizen to the poor mechanic, all anxious to catch a glimpse of, and to show their loyalty to England's virgin Queen. The erec tions from this place to this Horse Guards are many of them tasteful in the extreme, especially at the Admiralty, where the accommodation for the ladies of the various officers of that de partment are very extensive. Along the whole of this line the smiling and lovely faces of the beauty of England " Made us gaze we knew not where, . Dazzled with beauty." The commencement of the procession arrived at Charing Cross at half -past ten o'clock, and this was the signal for the congregated multitude to exercise might and right. Hun dreds who had patiently kept their places in the front since six o'clock were forced back, and it was with the greatest diffi culty the soldiers and police could prevent incursions on the line set apart for the procession. On the arrival of the carriage of Marshal Soult, Dpke of Dalmatia, opposite Drummond's banking house, the hero of " a hundred fights" was most enthusiastically cheered. The veteran Marshal returned the honour with the greatest grace, and appeared highly de lighted with the attention paid him. The passim -, of the Duchess of Kent's carriage was the signal for another rush, and we do firmly believe, that but for the police, the crowd would have carried their loyalty so far as to have forced their hands into the Royal carriage, in order to demonstrate their feelings by shaking hands with the mother of their be loved Queen. Her Royal Highness appeared highly delighted and repeasedly acknowledged the enthusiastic demonstrations of loyalty and respect towards her. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were greatly cheered, but the applause that was conferred upon the Duke of Sussex was beyond description; it must have been most grateful to his Royal Highness, who appeared greatly affected. At ten minutes past 11 o'clock, her Majesty in the Royal State car riage passed Charing Cross. At this moment the waving of handkerchiefs from every balcony and window, and the loud buzzes and demonstrations of loyalty from the congregated thousands below, pourtrayed a scene which it is impossible for pen to describe. Her Majesty appeared highly delighted, and repeatedly bowed in the most condescending manner. Upon the Royal Carriage arriving at the Admiralty, the acclamations of the assembled multitude were renewed. HORSE GUARDS. REGALIA. First, St. Edward's Stuff, to the Duke of Roxburghe.

Her Majesty, and the Princes and Princesses of the Blood Royal, attended by the officers of the household, having ar rived at the west entrance of the Abbey, her Majesty was re ceived by the great officers of State; the Noblemen bearing the regalia, and the Bishops carrying the patina, the chalice, and the Bible, when her Majesty repaired to her robing cham ber, constructed on the right of the platform without the en trance. The Ladies of her Majesty's household, and the officers of the Ruyal household, and of the respective households of the Princes and Princesses, to whom duties were not assigne.l in the solemnity, immediately proceeded to the places prepared for them respectively. Her Majesty having been robed, advanced up the nave into the choir; the choristers in the orchestra sing►ng the anthem, " I was glad when they said unto me, we will go into the house of the Lord," &c. At a quarter before 12 o'clock the head of the procession appeared issuing from the Royal entrance, under the organ, and advanced up the aide in the following order:— The Prebendaries and Dean of Westminster.

The Horse Guards, as well as all the other Government Offices, were crowded at every window and every house-top at a very early hour. Along Par:iament-street there were some very tasteful erections in front of the houses, which were generally covered with some device ; they were festooned, and branches of evergreens were judiciously interspersed, so as to give the whole line a very pleasing appearance, which was much heightened when they were filled with beautiful and smiling happy faces. Amongst all, the largest and most tasteful was that erected by the Reform Club. It gave accommodation to 600 ladies and 500 Members and friends. We understand that the Committee have resolved to afford refreshments to the whole of their visitors upon this auspicious occasion. In St. Margaret's Church-yard these was not an inch of spice unoccupied, and every seat was fil:cd before nine o'clock. No scats sere to ba obtained for 2s. 6d. this morning as was the case upon the occasion of the Corona tion of George the Fourth. The head of the procession reached this point at eleven o'clock, and seemed to give pleasure to the whole of the vast multitude assembled, many saying that it was the finest pro cession which they had ever seen in this country or abroad. Marshal Soult was much cheered as he passed along the line, with which he seemed to be well pleased. The Duchess of Kent was most enthusiastically cheered, the ladies all waving their handkerchiefs. . The Duchess of Gloucester and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were also cheered, and the immense mass as sembled, most enthusiastically and cordially cheered the Duke of Sussex. The multitude pf Reformers assembled in the Reform Club House were so enthusiastic in their demonstrations of loyalty as to draw the special attention of our youthful Quern, who acknowledged it by repeated bows. As the Royal carriage progressed the cheering and waving of handkerchiefs were unbounded—every hat was doffed, and many were the blessings invoked upon the head of her youthful Majesty. Hpr Majesty arrived at the Abbey precisely at 32 rnibutes past eleven o'clock. When she alighted, all the bands played the National Anthem. The arrival was announced at that moment by the firing of a gun. The procession was most admirably conducted, and, so far as we were able to learn, without a single accident. The line was kept by the police, assisted by the Gusrds ( Foot). The Royal Artillery Company, commanded by Co!. Cex, were on duty in Parliament -street, and lou fly cheer( d their Roy al Colonel, the Duke of Sussex, as he passed. THE NAVE. The great IN dy of the general spectators were congregated in the Nave, along the sides of which galleries were con structed arranged in an arnphitheatrical form, with ten rows of benches, risieg above one another, and calculated to hold at least 1,500 persons. Very shortly alter five o'clock, the hour at which the Abbey was opened, these galleries began rapidly to fill, and by seven o'clock were crowded. The spsetacle presented by this vast audieace was very striking. The diversified colours of the different dresses. Naval and Military Officers in their respective uniforms, Clergymen in canonical robes, ivilians in endless variety of apparel—from the most orthodox full dress, to the ordinary every-day gar. ments (for the regulations as to full dress were by no means enforced, though cone were to be seer who were not well astired)—and above all, the countless hues which marksd the dresses of the fair—all combined to render the scene at once picturesque and phasing. The patience of these spectators was to be severely tried by a six hours' delay ; but there ware not Youth).- numerot s objects to divert their attention and wile away tit- tedious inv.!) val. Those more distinguished personages who had seats in the choir bad of course to pass up the nave, to re Ich their various destinations, and were a sou: cc ofperp •tu illy changing attraction. Now, a Judge of the land,. with slow .and. legal step, p iced this floor ; then, a Peer of the Realm arrayed in coronation robes of crims o n velvet, edged nitli ermine, and coronet in band, not unfrequently with a real and unassumed dignity ef iort and bearing that forcibly remind''' us of the " Knights and B arons b o ld" of by-gone ages ; and led us for a moment to believ e t h a t " t h e age of ch i va l ry " h a d not yet fled : anon, still m ore attractive, came ' some no ble dame—her splendid fl ow i ng tga i n spread i ng aroun d her in luxurious magnificence, her fair and lofty brow hearing the impress of nobility, followed perbsps by some " lovely daughters of 2 noble house," not unworthy of their ti tled ancestors; officers, " ire all the pomp and pride of glorious war "biahops and aldermen, pursuivants, gentlemen-at-arms gna sk succession.

The Lord Archbishops of York and Armagh. and the Lord Chancellor of Ireland then proceeded to their sea's.

The "Te Deum" was sung by the choir, at the com mencement of which the Queen removed to the recognition chair on which her Majesty first sat, on the south-e/st side cf the Throne, the two Bishops her supporters, the great Officers of State, the Noblemen carry i ng t h e swords, and the Noble men who had borne the Regalia, coming from their re spective places, and attending her Majesty.

The Archbishop then knelt before the Queen, and, for him • selfand the other Lords Spiritual, pronounced the words of Homage, they kneeling around him, and saying after him.

The Dukes and other Peers thereupon performed their homauc, the senior of each degree pronouncing the words of homage, and the rest of the same degree saying after him, and each Peer of the same degree, successively, touching her Majesty's hand, and then retiring. The Peers hearing the swords, when going to perform their homage, delivered them to noblemen near them to hold during that ceremony. At the conclusion of the homage, the Queen received the two sceptres from the Dukes of Norfolk and Richmond. During the performance of the homage the choir sang the anthem, " This is the day which the Lord bath made," &c. and the Treasurer of her Majesty's Household threw about the medals of the Coronation. THh; HOLY SACRAMENT. After the anthem the Bishops of Carlisle and Raoliester, who had read the Epistle and Gospel, received front the altar, by the hands of the Archbishop, the patina and the chalice, which they cat , ried into St. Edward's Chapel, and brought from thence the bread upon the patina, and the wine in the chalice.

For the information of the uninitiated among our reeders_ the interior of the " aunnt Alba:, e" of Westminster being to many, even of the guide 'eeen s of London, " a sealed book" man ', be necessary 4 ..0 state that the vast pile is in the form of a cross, the aie L e s from the Royal entrance i tinting; west and cast, and the transepts north and south, the ceeo.e of the build- ing being the theatre where the chielportion of the august and impreseivo ceremonies took place; and where the young and ..; lovely Queen of these realms formed to-day the great point of attraction, " the cynosure every eye," o f t h e thousands of th e e li te o f the aris of countless tocracy and gent of ry, every oth e r c i v ili ze d nation on the face of the globe,his and as.. .' sembled within the. venerable pil e . - „ Frtv.i. taro western entrance, where her Majesty_ passed un... der the organ gallery to the theatre, a raised platform twenty ,four feet wide ViAi erected, with a smaller platform on either '. . side for the riecommodation of those personages who took a part in the imposing ceremony. In the centre of the Abbey, end immediately under the lantern, was a square platform, as- cended be four steps, covered with claret-coloured drapery, richly embroidered in gold. Here was placed the throne or chair of state, facing the altar, in which her Majesty received the homage of her people. Its sides were hung with t gold lace of grea richness and elegance, the seat an d back being '. covered with crimson velvet, on which the Royal arms were splendidly emblazoned, and the pillars, flutings, Sce.., being of .:. burnished gold. There was nleo a foot -stool corresponding in every particular with the throne itself. At each corner of the theatre were sendeircular rails, withie which the heralds and yeomen of the guard, bearing their partizaes, reteaiued during the ceremony. thet the ttestern or opposite e x t. ent i ty of the building was A altar, surmounted by a l e fty canopy, supporting; various emblematical figures in gold. The drapery behind it consisted of silk damask, extending along the whole. of the front gallery, and draned up with elegant festoons of gold cord and tassels. ..' On the right of' the altar was the offering table, covered withet garter blue reenoa velvet, bordered with lace and fringed with gold. In front of this table, and close to the theatre, was the pulpit, elevated on a splendidly gilt and decorated pedestal— the pulpit and cushion being covered with crimson velvet, richly fringed with gold lece. The south side of the sacra riurn was occupied by the Royal box. The drapery here was '. of the most costly description, being trimmed with loops of gold rope, bordered and fringed with gold lace, th e interior lined with white satin, elegantly fluted, and the chairs, which were of an extremely beautiful and gilt and ornamented. e unique p attern, being also k eant Her Majesty's Litany chair and faldstool were placed at the foot of the stage supporting the throne ; the drapery was of the same costly material and of corresponding magnificence .' with the other arrangements for this august and important cc- casion„ In the eastern aisle, immediately above the altar, which on Former occasions was occupied by the choir, was the gallery e r , for the accommo d at i on of the Members of the House of Coney ' mons. The seats, &c., were covered with scarlet cloth and gold ornaments. Above this was another nearly t o th e roo f of the buildi n g gallery, r i s i ng ts of win c h were also t. ,eovered with crimson cloth. T, the sca he front s of the various gal- - t (cries were d ecorated with hangings of the same material, trimmed with a deep gold fringe, and having the Royal arms ... embroidered in gold in the centre. At intervals of about ten feet, extending. along the entire ranges of the galleries were triangular pillars, elegantly fluted and finished vvitle gold mouldings. The north and south transepts were occupied for about half their depth with galleries for the accommodation of the Peeresses and Peers ; these, with the smaller of above them and the vaultings, were finished in the sante chide and elegant manner. All the galleries, ascending emphitheatri- celly to the roof, afforded a couireedious view of the proceetl e — ---' .ings to the immenee Assemblag e of spectators. The nave behind the organ, with its galleries ri;lit and left, - the Gothic screen in front, and the Gothic tracery over the Royal entrance, had a most imposing effect. Thu gilded shafts and pinnacles of the organ were in perfect keeping with the antique Gothic Gothic architecture by which it was surrounded.. .. Beneath the organ was the gallery for the vocal and iostru : _. tam nwnthuneal performer person s, affording accommodation fur upwards 0 1 red s. The most exquisite taste was displayed in ail the arrange- rnents which we have thus briefly, and, we fear, imperfectly de- scribed. - The admiration of all parties seas elicited not so ... much by the splendour of the decoration e , as by the perfect consistency and keeping of all the pare, applied as they were' '-- to the interior of so ancient is fabric as the Abbey, and harrno- sizing, so completely with the massive grandeur of the thste- o stained wane, %Odell were judiciously left in all their original architectural beauty and simplicity. From the great westeru .- --- - entrance through the nave, along the aisles into the intoriore of the theatre, includin g the choir, nort h mid south transepts, altar, galleries above and on all sides, there was a perfect uni forrnity of style; all that was requisite was included ; And el- :. though gorgeous and magnificent almost beyond description, ~ there was nothing to offend the eye of the most fastidious, or 1: in any way to lessen the general effect of the entire. The most attractive and interesting portion of the Abbey, was the north transept, in which were assembled several hun dreds .! of England's noblest and most lovely dames in their robes of estate. Thi s p o i nt, more especially when the sun flung its , rays across it, was a perfect blaze of diamonds and other costly gems. The doors of the several entrances to the Abbey were opened precisely at five o'clock, sad netwithetending the fats_ numbers who even at that early hour had assembled, such were the excellent arrangements made, that no crowding er inconvenience took place, all parties being directed by the police and other attendants stationed along the passag es to the eelleries and sittings iiitlicated on their tickets. In 'about half an hour, the upper and lower Choir Gal- ; leries in the Wmit Aisle, and the vantines over the aisles and transepts were completely filled, principally by Ladies in full dress. The Judges, Vice-Chancellor, and Master of the Rolls, in their state robes, took their seats at the end of the choir nearest the Theatre. At a few minutes past six o'clock, the attendants proceeded from the Western entrance with the plate for the altar, the .. arrangements for which had not been completed up to that hour. . From seven o'clock a continued stream of Peers, Pueresees, and other distinguished personages, entitled to pass through the Western entrance. and up the Aisle, were pouring into the , Abbey, and were conducted by the Heralds and Exons to the pines assigned them, the Peeresses taking their seats accorsl- ing to their rank in the North traascept, and the Peers in Me sam e order in the South transcept. The Sheriffs, Aldermen, and the Members of the Co Wee tern en t rance rp.. ration sat belox the Judges in the Choir, a n d c l ose to the The Members of the House of Common s , whe t - court dr ess or un if orm, arrived about ledf-past trine all is n d i n a , a very sho r t ti me t h e lower and. upper galleries were d.

At ten o'clock the firing of the gins aanouncei the depar. • lure of her M a j esty f rom the }'glace, an d the scene in the . Abbey than became much more interesting reed unimated. The sun, which had been obscured during the nioreing, at this period. poured a flood of brilliant light through the lofty gothic windows upon the gorgeou., assemblage beneath. It is impossible to describe the brilliant and plow- risque eff ec t o f t h e various co.tturnes—uniforres, robes, and draperies of evcry fantastic form and hue glittering with brit_ . Pants, pear)), and gold amid silver lace, which met the eyo in . every direction. ['rota the theatre of the vett building to the vaultiegs, every paint 'was crowded to excess, and all o f e a . see: e stra e ined to c a t c h t h e fi rst sight of their young, and lo ve l y v ig.
